1. Ridge Ventilation Slot Preparation
The slot may
be pre-cut on
a new roof
before or
after shingle
installation or
in a retrofit, the
slot can be cut
from the pre-shingled roof using a circular saw
with a carbide tip blade (protective eye goggles
should be worn during this process). For Quarrix
StormStop Ridge Vents with 5⁄8” profile, cut a 2”
slot (1” on each side of ridge) along the ridge(s).
For a roof with a center beam, a 31⁄2” slot should
be cut (13⁄4” on each side of ridge). For StormStop
Section vents with 1” profile, cut a 21⁄2” slot (11⁄4” on
each side ridge). For center beam applications
a 4” slot should be cut (2” on each side of ridge).
A minimum of 6” must be left uncut on each end of
the ridge. Once the slot is cut and any overlapping
shingles covering the ridge are trimmed and
removed, the ridge is ready for vent installation.
The amount of ventilation is controlled by the length of slot cut along the roof ridge. For
the most attractive roofline, it is recommended that Quarrix StormStop Ridge Vent Rolls or
Sections be installed along the entire ridge of the roof.
2. End Cap Installation
Pull apart a pre-cut section of the foam end cap
found with the vent. Using a utility knife, make a cut
in the StormStop material 1⁄2” on each side, back
from the end of the section. Using construction
adhesive or sealant caulk, coat both sides of the
StormStop material where it has been cut back
at the end of the vent. Insert the foam end cap
with the cut-back StormStop material between
the foam end cap and the underside of the vent
to assure a weather-tight seal. Sealant must be
applied to roof shingles before installing vent.
See Step 3 for approved sealants.

3. Vent Placement on Ridge
Attach vent to the roof deck by driving a nail in
each of the two corners on both ends of the vent.
Also, drive two nails through the vent and foam
end cap to hold foam in place on the ends of
the ridge only. Nails should penetrate the wood
roof deck at least 3⁄4”. It is not recommended to
nail vent to ridge prior to cap shingle installation.
Because of the popularity of dimensional
roofing material such as the newer 40/50 year
and lifetime laminated shingles, we require
that a bead of sealant be applied to the roof
shingles before installing the vent on the ridge.
This sealant should fill any voids between the
bottom of the vent and the surface of the shingle.
Use either butyl sealant conforming to ASTM C1085,
latex sealant conforming to ASTM C834, silicone
sealant complying with ASTM C920 or asphalt
roofing cement complying with ASTM D4586.
Roll out or place Quarrix Ridge Vent along the
entire length of slot also covering the 6” minimum
uncut ridge on both ends. Bend vent into a “V”
Shape. Secure at the lead edge after inserting
the end cap.
Nail should penetrate roof deck a minimum of
3⁄4”. Pull the vent tight and secure at about 10’. Pull
the rest of the vent tight and secure, inserting the
end cap. Multiple lengths of vent can be joined
by butting the sections tightly together. End caps
should be inserted at the beginning and end
of each section. Do not pre-fasten ridge vent
along the entire vent; with Quarrix Ridge Vent’s
One-Pass™ Installation, it is not necessary to
pre-fasten the vent every 2’ to 3’ prior to cap
shingle installation.

3b. Note: For “Class A” Installation Only
For “Class A” Quarrix StormStop Ridge Vent
installation, follow steps 1, 2, 3 as stated above.
Once the vent has been installed, use a utility knife
with a hook blade and remove the corrugated
plastic center section of the vent. Do this for the
hip and ridge. This modified installation meets
the requirements for UL790 “Class A”; standard
installation meets the requirements for UL790
“Class C.” Continue to Step 4.
4. Cap Shingle Installation
For the fastest installation, a coil nail gun can
be used as long as the minimum penetration
is 3⁄4”. It is important when installing this vent
that you maintain the pitch of the roof. The
vent has been installed properly if the bottom
of the vent is flat on the roof and the peak is
slightly rounded.

HipRoofs
1. Hip and Ridge Ventilation Slot Preparation
Determine how long of a hip and ridge ventilation slot will be required
according to 1:300 rule. The ridge and hip ventilation slot may be pre-cut on
a new roof before or after shingle installation or in a retrofit, the slot can be
cut from the pre-shingled roof using a circular saw with a carbide tip blade
(protective eye goggles should be worn during this process). Start ridge
ventilation slot 6” from point where hip and ridge meet. For 5⁄8” profile vents,
cut a 2” slot (1” on each side of ridge) along the ridge(s). For a roof with a
center beam, a 31⁄2” slot should be cut (13⁄4” on each side of ridge). For 1” profile
vents, cut a 21⁄2” slot (11⁄4” on each side of ridge). For center beam applications
a 4” slot should be cut (2” on each side of ridge). If entire ridge requires
ventilation, stop ventilation slot 6” from point where hip and ridge meet. To
maintain structural integrity, one continuous slot is not recommended on
hip applications. Start ventilation preparation by leaving 6” of hip uncut
from where the ridge and hip meet. Cut a 31⁄2” wide slot for ventilation. Hip
slot should be 18” in length, spaced with a 12” uncut area between each 18”
opening. The slot for ventilation should not be cut any lower than the top 1⁄3
of the roof to maintain a balanced ventilation system.
2. End Cap Installation
Pull apart a pre-cut section of the foam end cap found with the vent. Using
a utility knife, make a cut in the StormStop material 1⁄2” on each side, back
from the end of the section. Using construction adhesive or sealant caulk,
coat both sides of the StormStop material where it has been cut back at
the end of the vent. Insert the foam end cap with the cut-back StormStop
material between the foam end cap and the underside of the vent to
assure a weather-tight seal. Because of the popularity of dimensional
roofing material such as 40/50 year and lifetime laminated shingles
we require that a bead of sealant be applied to the roof shingles before
installing the vent on the ridge. This sealant should fill any voids between the
bottom of the vent and the surface of the shingle. Use either butyl sealant
conforming to ASTM C1085, latex sealant conforming to ASTM C834, silicon

(Vent Placement On Ridge Continued) Roll out or place vent along the
entire length of slot also covering the 6” minimum uncut ridge on
both ends. When using StormStop products, secure at the lead edge
after inserting the end cap. Shape vent in V Shape. Pull the vent tight
and secure at about 10 feet. Pull the rest of the vent tight and secure,
inserting the end cap. Multiple lengths of vent can be joined by butting
the sections tightly together. End cap should be inserted at the
beginning and end of each section.
4. Vent Placement on Hip
Install a minimum of 2 cap shingles at the bottom of the hip. If the vent is not
being run the entire length of the hip, the vent should overlap a minimum of
2 cap shingles at the end of the vent. Before installing the vent on the hip, lay
a bead of sealant on each side of the pre-cut slots. This will create a seal on
the step created by overlapping pattern of the shingles. The bead of sealant
should be applied approximately 1” from the edge of the pre-cut slot.
Note: For “Class A” Installation Only
For “Class A” Quarrix vent installation, follow steps 1, 2, 3 as stated above.
Once the vent has been installed, use a utility knife with a hook blade and
remove the corrugated plastic center section of the vent. Do this for the
hip and ridge. This modified installation meets the requirements for UL790
“Class A”; standard installation meets the requirements for UL790 “Class C.”
Follow remaining steps 4, 5, 6 as stated.
5. Hip and Ridge Vent Transition
Using a utility knife, trim the end of the vent from the hip to the ridge. This
creates the most attractive ridge and hip line. Insert the foam end cap under
the ridge vent where it is at full width. Fasten vent for hip at point where it
meets ridge. Roll out or place the vent all of the way down the hip, covering
2 pre-laid cap shingles at the bottom of the hip. Go back over hip vents and
fasten at 4” intervals. If the vent is not being run the entire length of the hip,
use the cap shingles to create a transition. Use sealant to fill any void left
between the shingles and the remaining top layer of the vent. Be sure to
apply roofing sealant to any spaces left by cap shingle used for transition.
If 2 or more sections of ridge vent are being joined together, an end cap
MUST be installed into each end of the joining sections. Repeat on all hips.
6. Cap Shingle Installation
Apply the cap shingles to the hip and then to the ridge. Nail hip and ridge
caps with roofing nails in a common overlapping pattern. Nails should
penetrate the wood roof deck at least 3⁄4”. For fastest installation, a coil nail
gun can be used as long as the minimum 3⁄4” penetration into the deck is
maintained. It is important when installing this vent that you maintain the
pitch of the roof. The vent has been installed properly if the bottom of the
vent is flat on the roof and the peak is slightly rounded.

1. Ridge Ventilation Slot Preparation
Cut the slot prior to installing the last course of shingle panels along the
ridge in a re-roof or new construction application (protective eye goggles
should be worn during this process). For 5⁄8” profile 7” wide vents, cut a 2” slot
(1” on each side of ridge) along the ridge. A minimum of 6” must be left uncut
on each end of the ridge. Once the slot is cut then measure and cut shingle
panels to fit along the ridge; panels should not obstruct the slot. Once the
panels are installed, the ridge is ready for vent installation.
Retrofit with Stone-Coated Steel If stone-coated steel is already installed,
the slot can be cut from the pre-paneled roof using a circular saw
with a combination blade (reversed) or a Tenryu Steel Pro blade
(protective eye goggles should be worn during this process). For 5⁄8”
profile 7” wide vents, cut a 2” slot (1” on each side of ridge) along the
ridge. A minimum of 6” must be left uncut on each end of the ridge.
2. End Cap Installation
Pull apart a precut section of the foam end cap found with the vent,
usually found in the first 3 feet of the roll. Use a utility knife to make a cut in
the StormStop material 1⁄2” on each side, back from the end of the section
(See insets). Using construction adhesive or sealant caulk, coat both sides
of the StormStop material where it has been cut back at the end of the
vent. Insert the foam end cap with the cut-back StormStop material
between the foam end cap and the underside of the vent to assure a
weather-tight seal.
3. Vent Placement on Ridge
Before installing the vent on the ridge a bead of sealant is required
between the stone-coated steel and the underside of the ridge vent.
This sealant should fill any voids between the bottom of the vent and the
surface of the panel. Caulking and sealants shall be suitable for exterior use
and be resistant to weathering; use either butyl or polyurethane sealants.
The caulking and the sealants shall be compatible with and adhere to
the materials to which they are applied. Check sealant manufacturer’s
instructions and stone coated steel’s installation guide for compatibility.
Roll out or place ridge vent along the entire length of slot also
covering the 6” minimum uncut ridge on both ends. When using
StormStop products, secure at the lead edge, inserting the end cap.
Pull the vent tight and secure at about 10 feet. Pull the rest of the vent
tight and secure, inserting the end cap. Multiple lengths of vent can be
joined by butting the sections tightly together. An end cap should be
inserted at the end of each section.

1. Ridge Ventilation Slot Preparation
The slot must be cut on a new roof before field tile installation. The
amount of ventilation is controlled by the length of slot cut along the
roof ridge. Remember, for the most attractive roofline, it is recommended
that Quarrix ridge vents be installed along the entire ridge of the
roof. For 5⁄8” profile vents, a 31⁄2” slot should be cut (13⁄4” on each side of
ridge). For 1” profile vents a 4” slot should be cut (2” on each side of the
ridge). A minimum of 6” must be left uncut on each end of the ridge.
Once the slot is cut and the battens are installed, it is time to install the
field and trim tiles per the tile manufacturer’s installation instructions.
After field tile installation, the ridge now is ready for vent installation.
2. End Cap Installation
Pull apart a precut section of the foam end cap found with the vent. Using a
utility knife, make a cut in the StormStop material 1⁄2” on each side of the vent,
back from the end of the section. Using construction adhesive or sealant
caulk, coat both sides of the StormStop material where it has been cut back
at the end of the vent. Insert the foam end cap with the cut-back StormStop
material between the foam end cap and the underside of the vent to assure a
weather-tight seal.
3. Vent Placement on Ridge
Before installing the vent on the ridge, a bead of sealant is required between
the roof tile and the under side of the ridge vent. This sealant should fill any
voids between the bottom of the vent and the surface of the tile. Caulking
and sealants shall be suitable for exterior use and be resistant to weathering.
The caulking and the sealants shall be compatible with and adhere to
the materials to which they are applied. Check sealant manufacturer’s
instructions for compatibility. Roll out or place vent along the entire length
of slot also covering the 6” minimum uncut ridge on both ends. Multiple
lengths of vent can be joined by butting the sections tightly together.
An end cap should be inserted at the end of each section.

Metal Roofs
1. Ridge Ventilation Slot Preparation
Cut the slot along the ridge prior to installing metal panels in a re-roof or new construction
application (protective eye goggles should be worn during this process). For 5⁄8” profile 9” wide
vents, cut a 2” slot (1” on each side of ridge) along the ridge. A minimum of 6” must be left uncut
on each end of the ridge. Once the slot is cut then measure and cut metal panels to fit along the
ridge; panels should not obstruct the slot. Once the panels are installed, the ridge is ready for vent
installation. Place foam closure or metal closure on each side of ridge. Install Quarrix Ridge Vent.
Retrofit metal roofing is already installed; the slot can be cut using a circular saw with a combination
blade (reversed) or a Tenryu Steel Pro blade (protective eye goggles should be worn during this
process). For 5/8” profile 9” wide vents, cut a 2” slot (1” on each side of ridge) along the ridge.
A minimum of 6” must be left uncut on each end of the ridge. Place foam closure or metal closure on
each side of ridge. Install Quarrix Ridge Vent.
2. End Cap Installation
Pull apart a pre-cut section of the foam end cap found with the vent, found 3 feet into the roll. Use a
utility knife to make a cut in the StormStop material 1⁄2” on each side, back from the end of the section.
Using construction adhesive or sealant caulk, coat both sides of the StormStop material where it has
been cut back at the end of the vent. Insert the foam end cap with the cut-back Storm Stop material
between the foam end cap and the underside of the vent to assure a weather-tight seal.
3. Vent Placement on Ridge
Before installing the ridge vent, a bead of sealant is required between the metal or foam closure and
the underside of the vent, filling any voids. Caulking and sealants shall be suitable for exterior use and
be resistant to weathering; use either butyl or polyurethane sealants. The caulking and the sealants
shall be compatible with and adhere to the materials to which they are applied. Check sealant
manufacturer’s instructions and metal manufacturer’s installation guide for compatibility. Roll out or
place ridge vent along the entire length of slot also covering the 6” minimum uncut ridge on both ends.
When using StormStop products, secure at the lead edge, inserting the end cap. Pull the vent
tight and secure at 10 feet. Pull the rest of the vent tight and secure, inserting the end cap.
Multiple lengths of vent can be joined by butting the sections tightly together. An end cap should
be inserted at the end of each section. Attach vent to the roof deck metal fastener in each of the
two corners on both ends of the vent. Also, drive two fasteners through the vent and foam end
cap to hold foam in place on the ends of the ridge only. Fasteners should penetrate the wood roof
deck at least 3⁄4”. It is recommended to fasten the vent to ridge prior to hip/ridge cap installation.
